    Tragic Death of Young Traveler in Hampi: A Call for Tourist Safety

    A young traveler named Bhibas Nayak, who was only 26 years old, sadly lost his life after being pushed into a canal. This incident is linked to a terrible crime in Hampi, Karnataka. Nayak’s cousin shared that he loved to explore new places, meet new people, and go on adventures. Whenever he had time off work, he would plan trips—usually four times a year. His funeral took place on Sunday in his hometown in Odisha’s Kandhamal district.

    What Happened in Hampi?
    On the night of March 6, two women, one of whom was from Israel, were attacked by three men near a historical site in Hampi. A brave 29-year-old woman, who ran a homestay, was one of the victims who managed to survive the horrible experience. She said the men approached them while they were enjoying a night of music and stargazing, asking for petrol. When the victims refused to give them more money, the situation turned violent.

    The woman described how the men took her bag, which had two mobile phones and ₹9,500 in cash. “While we were yelling for help, they rode away on their motorcycle,” she reported.

    Police later arrested the third suspect in Chennai and took him to Karnataka. Koppal’s Superintendent of Police, Ram Arasiddi, stated that all legal processes would be followed, and the man might be taken into custody for questioning.

    Government Response
    Karnataka’s Minister HK Patil called the incident very unfortunate and promised to improve safety for tourists in the area. He said, “It’s very sad that such a crime happened in Hampi. The government is taking serious actions to hold those responsible accountable and to support the victims.”

    Why Are Stocks Dropping? Understand the Reasons Behind the Trends

    After a brief period of recovery, stock markets are feeling pressure again. Right now, it’s important to understand why a stock price is dropping. Is it because big markets like Nifty and Sensex are going down? Or is it due to something that’s happening with a particular company or industry? Knowing whether the price drop is just part of a larger trend or if it’s caused by specific problems can help you figure out when the stock might bounce back as the situation improves. Stocks that are falling just because the overall market is down might recover faster when the mood picks up again.

  • Vape Battery Explosion: Dorset Woman’s Painful Journey to Recovery

    Vape Battery Explosion: Dorset Woman’s Painful Journey to Recovery

    A 35-year-old woman named Kerri Absolom from Dorset had a very scary and painful experience when a vape battery exploded in her pocket. It happened one morning right before she was about to go to work. Kerri noticed smoke coming from her clothes and, when she checked, she saw sparks flying from the battery. Shocked, she realized she had a severe burn on her leg.

    Kerri’s husband, Christopher, tried to help her pull her pants off as the situation got worse. Suddenly, the battery fell onto their dog’s bed and melted through it into the carpet below. They heard hissing sounds as the hot battery caused more problems. Christopher quickly called for an ambulance.

    Firefighters arrived and took Kerri outside to cool her burning leg with water. They also removed the still-hot battery from the house to prevent a bigger fire.

    Doctors later found out that the battery exploded because it touched Kerri’s keys, which acted like a conductor. She had to go to the hospital with third-degree burns and received strong pain medicine to help her through the pain. Kerri had to stay in the hospital for a week.

    While healing, she had a skin graft to help her recover and reduce scarring. But the recovery was very painful, making it hard for Kerri to even shower. She also had allergic reactions to her medication and struggled to sleep because of her ongoing pain and fear.

    This whole experience made it difficult for her mentally, leading to post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). She had to take time off work to heal and recover from both her physical and emotional injuries.

    Hardik Pandya Leads India to Champions Trophy Victory

    Dubai – Hardik Pandya stepped up to bowl for India in the Champions Trophy when Jasprit Bumrah was not available. Despite his new role, he kept his fighting spirit and adjusted well. In the tournament, India relied mainly on spinners, so Pandya only bowled 24.3 overs in five matches, taking four wickets. He commented, “Bowling will take care of itself. This year was all about learning and facing challenges. I never run away from tough situations. If challenges come, I face them head-on. As long as I stay in the game, I have a chance.”

    After India’s victory, Pandya expressed that he has been quietly working hard to improve his game. “I always believe in myself and know that hard work pays off. The way you prepare shows in your performance,” he stated. Winning this tournament also helped him forget the disappointment of losing to Pakistan in the 2017 edition, where he was also a player. He said, “Today, I feel like a long-hidden dream has come true. Eight years is a long time, and many things have changed, but winning for India means everything to me. It’s not just about me; it’s about the team’s success that matters most.”

  • Stock Market Taxes Explained: Know Your Tax Liabilities

    Stock Market Taxes Explained: Know Your Tax Liabilities

    If you make money only from the stock market, how much tax you pay depends on whether you’re an investor or a trader.

    – For Traders: If you do intraday trading, futures, or options trading without delivery, your earnings count as business income. This means you get taxed based on the income tax slabs.

    Here are the tax slabs for the financial year 2024-25:
    – 0 to Rs 3 lakh: No tax.
    – Rs 3 lakh to Rs 7 lakh: 5% tax.
    – Rs 7 lakh to Rs 10 lakh: 10% tax.
    – Rs 10 lakh to Rs 12 lakh: 15% tax.
    – Rs 12 lakh to Rs 15 lakh: 20% tax.
    – Above Rs 15 lakh: 30% tax.

    Important Note: In 2025-26, there will be new tax slabs, where you won’t pay tax if your income is up to Rs 4 lakh.

    For Investors: If you buy and hold stocks, your income is treated as capital gains. If you sell stocks after holding them for more than a year, you pay 12.5% tax on profits above Rs 1.25 lakh a year. If you sell stocks within a year, you pay a 20% tax on the earnings.

    Reinvesting Profits: If you make a profit and put it back into buying stocks, you still have to pay capital gains tax that year. But if you invest in tax-saving options, like ELSS, you might save on taxes.

    Expenses for Traders: Traders can deduct some expenses like internet bills and research costs before calculating their taxable income, which helps lower their tax.

    Choosing the Right Tax System: You can choose between the old tax regime and the new one. If you pick the old regime, you can use deductions for investments like PPF or ELSS to reduce how much tax you pay. However, those deductions aren’t available in the new tax system, which just offers lower tax rates.

    This means you should really think about which tax system works best for you

  • Debate Ignites: Do Migrant Kids Choose to Cross the Border

    Debate Ignites: Do Migrant Kids Choose to Cross the Border

    Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem was interviewed by Margaret Brennan on “Face the Nation.” When they discussed how migrant families were treated at the border, Noem said that children of migrants have a “choice” about crossing the border illegally.

    She claimed that everyone can choose to be in the country legally or illegally and can even leave the country voluntarily (“self-deport”). Brennan tried to correct her, saying that kids don’t really have a choice in this matter. Still, Noem insisted that children and their parents can decide to stay together or if the parents want to leave the kids behind, that’s a family choice.

    When asked about separating families at the border, Noem said she wasn’t sure if that policy would come back. She blamed President Joe Biden, saying he ignored federal immigration laws, leading to consequences for people who break the law.

    Rep. Jasmine Crockett from Texas disagreed with Noem. She said that entering the country without permission is not a crime; it’s a “civil matter.” Crockett pointed out that local police don’t ignore real crimes because of someone’s immigration status. Instead, they focus on serious crimes and shouldn’t waste time rounding up individuals just because they entered the country illegally.

    Crockett also criticized Republicans for their stance on immigration and called former President Trump the “biggest criminal” to have been in office. She mentioned that people shouldn’t be concerned about immigrants when there are more serious criminals to catch.
